Here are the most efficient ways to get from Tokyo to Mt. Fuji. The Five Lakes area at the base of Mt. Fuji is a popular day trip or getaway from Tokyo. It takes around 2 hours to reach Kawaguchiko Station, the launching point to explore the area. Then you can take in the views from the lakes or climb to the iconic Chureito Pagoda.
